"Reverence for Life" says that the only thing we are really sure of is that we live and want to go on living. This is something that we share with everything else that lives, from elephants to blades of grass - and, of course, every human being. So we are brothers and sisters to all living things, and owe to all of them the same care and respect that we wish for ourselves.

Welcome to the Friends of Albert Schweitzer (UK) website. Some of us knew and worked with him in Africa and others of us have learnt about him and developed a strong admiration for what he has done and what he has left to humanity in his written works. This site is a record of our journey of discovery.
